Master's thesis in the field of cell-free synthesis systems

Through its research in the fields of analytics, diagnostics, biosystems engineering and biosafety, the Bioanalytics and Bioprocesses Division (IZI-BB) addresses future-oriented and sustainable areas of research. The institute develops analytical and biotechnological solutions for medical issues, animal health, nutrition, cosmetics and the environment.

In the Bioprocesses group we are looking for a Master’s student to complete their thesis. For cell-free protein synthesis systems to be used efficiently and reproducibly, targeted quality control of the underlying cell extracts is essential. In particular, the content of functional ribosomes and signal recognition particle (SRP) strongly determines the performance of eukaryotic cell-free protein synthesis systems. Withi...
